A representative of the British boxer spoke about the future plans of his ward.
Eddie Hearn, the promoter of former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, shared his thoughts on the future of his protégé.
According to the representative of the British boxer, they had to abandon an immediate rematch with Daniel Dubois due to the high risk, but they do not abandon their intentions to organize a rematch, and next year AJ may be the last in also pro.
“This could be Joshua’s last year in the sport. He wanted to fight on February 22 but unfortunately we turned him down because we can’t afford to do anything wrong.
If Dubois beats him again, he will have to seriously think about his future. We have the last section in this race that we must complete one hundred percent.
When he comes back in May or June, or whenever that is, he should be one hundred percent ready physically and mentally. He wants a rematch with Dubois so badly,” Hearn was quoted as saying by the Manchester Evening News.
Previously, promoter Dubois doubted a rematch with Joshua next year.
